STUDENTS

This report has information showing student enrollment by grade, race

STANFORD ACHIEVEMENT TEST 

Student performance on the Stanford Achievement Test (SAT) is reported
for grades 2—8. The charts show the national percentile ranks
that indicate the relative standing of the students in comparison with
other students in the same grade in the norm (reference) group who
took the test at a comparable time. Percentile ranks range from a low
of 1 to a high of 99, with 50 denoting average performance for the
grade.

Percentile ranks are useful for comparing students’ performance on
particular subjects relative to the performance of other students. Percentile
ranks are also useful for comparing students’ performance
across content areas in a score profile.

God has blessed every child with different talents and abilities. At St.
John Lutheran School our teachers strive to help each child use these
God-given blessings to reach the highest academic level possible.
These standard achievement tests do not measure everything that students
have learned or have been taught. The religious instruction that
the children receive is not measurable by any standard achievement
test. The effects of this instruction, which includes memorization and
application of scripture, faith building activities, and worship experiences,
can be seen in the lives and actions of our students.
